The ministry spokesman, Haidar al-Saadi said in a statement reported for "Shafaq News" that "the Department of reform started the implementation of the Minister of Justice orders, Hassan al-Shammari by releasing detainees who ended their sentences directly to prevent delaying the release process."

Saadi stressed that "the number of those released from the ministry prisons in Baghdad and the provinces during last December reached 721”.
